Think the Egg would pay Ralphie $5,000 if he sold 100 tickets a week before the show? Don’t you think all venues have escape clauses, becaus sof poor ticket sales? Happens all the time.

If Seinfeld wasn’t sold out, it was a dozen people short! I sat upstairs and I couldn’t see an empty seat.

Let’s see….the guy that starred and produced the greatest TV sitcom of all-time. or the guy that came in 3rd on Season 4 of Last Comic Standing!? Hope Ralphie gets bets better! ;)

Ah, yes, Ralphie May went out and got himself infected with pneumonia so he wouldn’t have the face the indignity of a small audience. I had an interview with May scheduled for Sunday that his reps canceled after he went straight from the cruise ship to the hospital.

Also, not “all comedy lovers” will be at the Palace — Seinfeld still isn’t sold out. And I’d wager we have more than 2,800 comedy lovers locally.
